Episode 65: Shalva Kikodze: Beyond the Horizon

WhatsApp Image 2021-05-27 at 16.02.50.jpeg

Attention, dear listeners! Today’s episode is going to be a wild one. And not wild, per say, because we’re covering scandal... but because this one hits very close to home. And the format is new, too! Today Elene teaches Stephanie about Georgian artist and Sad Boy, Shalva Kikodze. Join us as we follow a man in search of a country, continue to romanticize about running away to Paris to become great artists, phonics our way through the pronunciation of Tbilisi, and learn so much more about or favorite Georgian co-host!
